I was first introduced to the AstroTwins in 2008, during a pivotal time in my life as I approached my Saturn return. For those unfamiliar, the Saturn return happens around 29 and signals a cosmic rite of passage—a time of major life shifts, reevaluations, and often, challenges. I was navigating my personal relationship at the time, and in search of clarity, I purchased their Love Zodiac book. It was a game-changer, fueling an obsession with astrology that far exceeded my teenage fascination with horoscopes. Nearly two decades later, I am just as captivated by their latest offering, The Astrology Advantage.
Their new book, which has already become a USA Today National Bestseller in its first week, is another testament to their knack for making astrology accessible and actionable. Tali and Ophira Edut—better known as the AstroTwins—have crafted a guide that serves as both a cosmic roadmap and a practical tool for navigating the complexities of life, from relationships to career moves.
The inspiration behind The Astrology Advantage stems from their decades-long journey with astrology. Astrology has guided their lives for over thirty years, helping them navigate life’s big questions. With this book, they wanted to make astrology more accessible and actionable for everyone, whether you’re a seasoned enthusiast or just starting out. The goal was to simplify astrology’s complexity and turn it into practical, real-world advice to help people align their goals, relationships, and career paths with their cosmic blueprint. They even took inspiration from the popularity of personality tests like Myers-Briggs and Enneagram, integrating astrology into a system that’s both fun and easy to follow.
What sets The Astrology Advantage apart from other astrology guides on the market is its focus on practical, everyday use. Instead of relying solely on horoscopes or astrological jargon, the AstroTwins introduced the I*AM system, which translates astrological charts into three archetypes: Innovator, Authority, or Maven. This system works like a cosmic personality test but goes beyond simply describing traits; it provides clear steps on how to use this knowledge to create success in daily life. With a simple online quiz, readers can discover their archetype and receive personalized advice based on their astrological chart.
Astrology is often considered mystical or abstract, but the AstroTwins emphasize its practicality. They see an astrological chart as a map of strengths, challenges, and potentials, offering what they call “customized cosmic coaching.” The book helps readers understand how to use their natural rhythms to make smarter career moves, improve communication in relationships, and even manage time more effectively.
The I*AM system breaks astrology down into three archetypes based on the modalities of cardinal, fixed, and mutable signs. Cardinal signs, like Aries and Capricorn, are called Innovators for their pioneering energy. Like Taurus and Leo, fixed signs are Authorities, providing stability and leadership. Mutable signs, such as Gemini and Pisces, are labeled Mavens, thriving in communication and connection. This simplified system allows readers to focus on their strengths and align their cosmic energy with actionable steps for personal and professional growth.
One of the most exciting outcomes of using the I*AM system has been the transformations people experience. Readers have reported a deeper alignment with their purpose, finding success in everything from launching new businesses to improving personal relationships. Innovators, for instance, thrive when they allow space for bursts of creativity rather than forcing rigid routines. Authorities embrace their leadership qualities to achieve long-term results, while Mavens excel in roles where they can communicate and connect.
Astrology is evolving, and the AstroTwins are helping to modernize it for the digital age. Tools like the I*AM system allow people to engage with their charts in real time, bringing the ancient practice into the modern world. As technology advances, astrology is becoming more interactive, with the AstroTwins seeing it increasingly integrated into everyday life—not just as a mystical art but as a tool for strategy, timing, and personal growth.
One of the more philosophical topics in The Astrology Advantage is the balance between free will and fate. The AstroTwins believe astrology should be seen as a tool, not a belief system. Your birth chart, they explain, is a map of potential, highlighting specific energies and tendencies. How you choose to work with those energies is where free will comes in. By understanding the timing of certain events and cosmic influences, astrology can help you make more conscious decisions, especially during life transitions.
Even if you’re new to astrology, The Astrology Advantage is designed to be user-friendly. The I*AM system offers a simple entry point, and the book provides a breakdown of essential elements like the Sun, Moon, and Rising signs. Readers can start by identifying their archetype and gradually explore the deeper aspects of their charts as they feel more comfortable with the system.
Ultimately, the AstroTwins hope their book will help readers embrace their unique cosmic wiring and make empowered choices. Their goal is for readers to experience “contagious ease” in their lives—a feeling of flow and fulfillment from self-acceptance. Whether timing a career move, navigating a relationship, or finding balance in daily routines, The Astrology Advantage aims to help people feel aligned with their purpose and confident in their journey. With its blend of practical advice and cosmic insight, the book is poised to be a lasting success, transforming how readers engage with astrology in their daily lives.
